Hey West, stop playing the poor repressed black man card! You lost because your work wasn't good enough, end of story. Do better work and maybe you'll win. Now go wipe your f'ing nose and shut the f*ck up!
Hey Kanye,
Check yourself. It's not a black and white issue and don't make it out to be. It's the fact that your poor little ego got bruised...AGAIN. Take the defeat, learn from it and roll with it. You are blowing off the awards forever. Who cares. You probably would have had more impact if you could have kept your trap shut and just not showed next year.
Quit crying, this whole thing is just another party for the affluent musical masses to come out and storke each others egos for 3 hours. I quit watching MTV in the mid 90's becuase of lack of videos.
I would be po'd if i were you and did not win anything on BET's award shows. Quit worrying about MTV and move on.
It's MTV!!! Who cares if you don't win on MTV. Shoot for Grammy's, and even if you don't get those, don't cry about it. What a chump.
I personally feel he is one of the worst rappers I've ever heard. Why does he think he is so great? Besides, REAL musicians can sing, not just rap. Don't be surprised if you loose to singers, buddy!
Hey Konnie,
It is not a black and white thing. it is a you suck thing. the only time I see you name in the media is when you are complaining about something. I did not win. I am a poor represted black man. I got more money than I know what to do with. Waaa waa waaa. Try doing a song, just one song, that is not about be poor and down trodden. try something fun. try not sucking so bad. adn you know you suck when the VMA's won't give you artist of the year.
Get a grip and grow up. Jerk off.
Kanye and 50 Cent want to see who's album sells more? I suggest to evreyone that we buy neither, and if you really need them for some stupid reason, just download them.
The MTV awards get worse and worse each year. Kayne West is a sore loser. Why not just keep silent instead of burning your bridges? What happened to him-- used to rap about Jesus--now he's doing the half naked gyrating women in the background thing. He was right about George Bush though.
Who cares
Just another Asshole, beside he is very over rated. I mean the biy is lucky to be making at living at what he calls art. he needs a dose of manhood.
If I had a dime everytime Kanye pulled the 'race card' I'd be richer than him. Im tired of hearing of how blacks have or had it so hard. It's people like him that give blacks a bad name. Dont get me wrong I like black people. We are all the same in this world. Some people in this world just dont have tallent. Kanye... give it up already you stink. Nobody likes you. Throwing fits like my two year old daughter. I mean come one, face it, everyones work was better than yours. You need 'Jesus to Walk' into your life.
Yeah. This is not a black and white issue. It's quite ridiculous this man holds MTV's audience as the the highest jury of artistic ability. I mean come on. 'Date My Mom?' Personally I would rather be successful underground where people actually care about the music and not the damn commercials of whether not a girl will screw a guy because he isn't wearing the right deoderant. I like Kanye West. I enjoy listening to his rap. I don't like his pissy fit. I liked his George W. Bush rant. I don't like this attitude.
is it because he said george bush doesnt care about black people?
seriously, who cares... The VMAs are increasingly pathetic to watch and grow more irrelevant with each succeeding year. I have never seen so much lip synching in my life. That, and the fact that most artists who lipped barely did so convincingly... If you can't sing, don't become a recording artist.
I agree with most of you that he's wasting his breath on this MTV issue. What a sore loser. There are thousands of other talented artists who would kill to even be nominated for something like that. And this guy is spoiled and immature enough to gripe about it while he's getting on an elevator instead of taking time to think, and then addressing it in a thoughtful, grown-up way like a real man would. I can't wait to see to see this fool lose to 50 Cent in the 'Battle of the Record Sales' this week.
lose wit' dignity, ya fool! ya jest too fulla yaself! 99 pcnt of amerika dont giva dang anyhew! so rap on, ya blamin da wrong ones,cuz its yaself whoos loosin it! i sur glad i don watch dat tv or stuff, its pretty borin anyway. keep ya day job, ya gonna neeed it.
I feel the reason he is so frustrated is because he feels white america owes him.
O noooo what will we ever do without teh Kanye West?
Pleez don't go
Yeah, Yeah...
Kanye need to quit whine'in. He whines about everything. I read all of the posts on here and only one of them shows love to Kanye. To sum it up, quit whining about everything. The only time anyone heres about Kanye is if he is complaining about something. He always plays the 'black man' card. Hey KANYE- that was like over 60 years ago when people were segregated and 40 years ago when you could use the 'poor black man' excuse. Get the heck over yourself buddy. You are never going to sell out anything because you whine about everything. No body, i repeat NOBODY wants to hear a sore loser talk about how its because he is black that he didnt win anything. NO KANYE your voice is annoying, and your never going to be on top whining about being on bottom.
Wow. First Bush hates black people and now MTV does, as well. Sounds like someone has a little racial insecurity going on.
He is another pathetic, lipsincer, wannabee singer.
His scariest situation is being told in public to sing on a open microphone.
He needs all the help from synthesizers, NASA computers, and electronic filters.
This whole generation of these so-called new singers makes me laugh and sick.
Nobody sings anymore like Elvis, James Brown, Beetles, or Metallica in the good old days.
Kanye should be thankful if he could get a real job as an usher in a local, movie theatre.
Kanye, YOU DONT SING AND NEVER HAVE SO SHUT UP AND STOP BLAMING WHITEY FOR ALL YOUR TROUBLES!
Rap Crap!!!
The real racist here sees everything in black and white, typical, been fed this by liberals that you cant do anything without the govt. anyway...Kanye Who?...This clown sucks, I like old rap but most of the new stuff is total crap usually no even a new song just a rap over, thank god rap is dead now.
hopefully, he'll stop sending his videos to MTV, or even better yet, he'll stop making 'music' all together!
Whiney little punk! Get good at what you do, then maybe you'll win. I despise people who feel they're soooo special that the world should bow at their feet. Let this be your wake up call Kanye.
Hey K.
Wa wa wa waaa, stop your pregnant lady with hemmoroids rant. Face it you are not good. You have a good PR team who got you where you are today, that's it.
You have ZERO talent, as for the qualities that make us normal human beings you are in the neg#'s. GROW UP you self absorbed piece of fecal matter
Why don't you record a song instead of the puke-hop you spit out.
Perhaps, maybe you will just win.
Your friend,
Captain Howdy
Hey Kanye, what makes you think you are better than Britney...you are a proud, self proclaimed porn freak. So how are you classier than her...you're not!
Kanye, a no talent hack and side show.
Get over yourself, fool. You will not have an ever lasting impression on the music industry. You will not be around in another 10 yrs. You cannot sing, you cannot even speak English properly.
You are just another foolish rap artist who thinks the world owes you something, and yet again making it a racial point.
Go away you idiot!!!
What a whiner. Be gone then already.
Oh give me a break man. First Bush hates black people. then MTV hates black people. What next? The Pope hates black people? Black people hate black people? just because YOU are having issues? Just because you're music sucks, don't make it seem like ALL the black musicians are getting screwed. They're just better than you, that's all.
I mean seriously dude... I'm white and you make more money than I'll ever dream of seeing if I live to be 100, just because you wake up in the morning! I'm struggling to pay my bills and my medical care after a car hit ME! I'm not whining that its because I'm white!
I can't stand it when guys like him get filthy rich just for sitting in front of a mic and talking in rhythm, then complain about race issues holding them back. Holding them back? From what? Going from being multi-millionaires to multi-billionaires?! It makes those with REAL racisim claims look bad.
For god's sake grow up and use that millions of dollars you make for endorsing someone's sunglasses and get a therapist!
Kanye breathed new life into hip hop, anyone who says otherwise is a moron.. plain and simple. He whines, but oh well. I think he realizes that one black man wearing yves saint laurent glasses does not balance the world, which apparently some people still haven't figured out.
Get real guy, trying to defend his crybaby attitude. He has just as many 'yes and no' people surrounding him as Spears does. Giving yourself credit to for rhyming about a tough life doesn't any automatic awards. I would have an easy time 'singing' about people having a tough situation if money was literally shoved into my pockets as well. If an award was to be handed his way, it SHOULD be given to those who wrote/edited lyrics and put the music behind his 'gospel'...end rant kthx
He may be a crybaby at times but he has a valid point! MTV is NOT a place where African Americans are valued but used for exploitation of their culture! MTV wants 'black culture' without the Blacks! Britney, Justin, Robin, Christina, Mark Ronson, shall I continue? If MTV could exclude blacks from their channel, I believe they totally would! At the end of the day, all you whites have to do is look the the history of this country to see that everything does revolve around black and white. Stop being so oblivious to how this world really works! Your ancestors started it and it's up to the new generation of white folks to stop the racist mess that continues today!
This guy got his own featured party at the awards, he got to perform MULTIPLE times with MULTIPLE songs. He got way more airtime on the awards than almost anyone other than Timberlake and Timbaland.
He wines too much! damn... He obvioulsy carried some childhood issues along with him into his adulthood. I notice Kanye West has very high opinions about himself, that bullsh*t doesnt get you know where. Hes a good producer,Good artist. But he needs to Cut it out seriously for not getting his Way.
There is a possibility in the 'FAIR' world that all those whom do well get reward, right! Are you freakin' kidding me Kanye, come on you should know the music industry by now. Publicity brings viewers which for them is more money in their pocket. MTV is putting on a show and they want performers that will keep them on top of the list. Not only to outstanding performers bring publicity to MTV, but especially the ones who F-Up, i.e. Britney. Kanye, stop the madness it is MTV not the Grammys and either way they are just using you, if you don't perform there is always someone else. JayZ and Tupac have stated how F-up the industry is, so why are you acting surprise. You see Puff Daddy, I am not switch through all those damn names, keeps reinventing himself to get attention and true music lovers just ignore his ass...soon he will change his name to some symbol for more attention (not the same reason Prince changed his name briefly) Chris Brown is a damn good performer, hell his videos are better than your live performances. You are cool and all, but sometimes I don't want to hear preaching, just some music to make me dance...I can't dance to Touch the Sky (but it is cool) - However there are times when I want to hear different music like Common, Taleb, Dixie Chics, Keisha Cole, or Incubus. You have to stay humble and not be an ass because you are rich. Remember you got a second chance [life]...don't waste it being a bitch!
Mr.West's behavior was both unprofessional and unbecoming of a star of the proportions he has attained.
He should have rested on his laurels and bit his tongue and focussed on the future. To see him acting that way was ridiculous.
And speaks worlds of what he and his maturity levels actually do deserve. NOTHING !
STOP ACTING LIKE A LITTLE GIRL AND ADMIT THAT YOU SUCK!!!
ppl
kanye has been trying his hardes on his new album 'graduation'
u have to give a black man a chance
not even 1 of the 5 nominations been givin to him if that was u, you will be switchin....
What kind of language are you speaking? Just to have been nominated is an honor. When you say '' I deserve a reward for my hard work '' all you have just done ruined ALL of your credibility. The VMA's are not the only music acheivement awards there are. If he were a professional and waited his turn. He will earn an award from someplace. BUT not if he stamps his feet!!! Most likely it will be from the B.E.T they are just as contemptable as Kanye.
First of all Ego Checker if you stop watching MTV in the 90's then how do you know what happened at the awards with my baby(I Love You Kanye). So before you start checking him i suggest you check yoursef and my honey bun has the right to speak his mind and maybe it was a black and white thing in case you havent noticed racism is still alive in this world. So if i was him i would be mad to if somebody told me i was going to perform and they told me i couldnt on the day of the awards and if i was him i would have an attitude also and it aint whinning its simply the TRUTH.
Georgia Chick's Comment Was On Point. Ok, Kanye Is A Cry Baby, But He Also Puts Out Great Music. The Man just Feels that at some point MTV needs to take it's hat off for him if BET and the rest of the world that is buying his music is doing just that. I mean, the white people have to be buying his music if he is putting up those kind of numbers. Not jus the blacks and hispanics. So quit frontin' and lets be real. Also, quit with the racism already. We all bleed the same and I know ya'll smarter than that. On a more positive note RACISM is slowly dying cuz we about to paint the white house black. (Joke). I love white people! ya'll just corny sometimes. 1
